EventsBasic (free)Checked on 09.11.2026
Prerequisites
- You have at least the Moderator role in the club, association or group.
Who may do this?
Whoever may create events may create a date poll. Setting the date, deleting and creating guest links is for the person who created the poll or anyone with the “Edit all events” right. Club members may vote.
Step by step
Create a date poll
Open “Create event” and choose “Find a date together”. Enter a title, optionally a description and place, and add at least two date suggestions (at most 20). Optionally fill in “Duration in minutes (optional)” and “Poll ends (optional)”. With “Notify members” members receive a notification. Click “Create date poll”.
Let members vote
Members open the date poll, vote “Yes”, “If needed” or “No” on each suggestion and click “Save votes”. They can change their votes later as long as the poll is running.
Let guests vote with a link
For people without an account you create a link on the page in the card “Poll without an account (guest link)” with “Create guest link”. Copy it, share it via WhatsApp or email or show it as a QR code. Guests give a name and vote Yes, If needed or No. You can set the “Maximum replies” and end the link with “Revoke”.
Read the results
The matrix shows every person and every answer. “Yes” counts 2 points, “If needed” 1 point; the “Best date” is marked. Guests see only the totals, no names.
Set the date
Choose the date and click “Set the date”. This creates a real event in the calendar; members who voted are notified.

Common errors and solutions
- “A suggested date is in the past.”
- Choose dates in the future.
- “This poll has ended.”
- After the date is set or the configured end, the poll accepts no more votes.
- “Suggest at least two dates.”
- A date poll needs at least two suggestions. Add one with “Suggest another date”.
- “A date has already been set for this poll.”
- The event is already in the calendar. A second decision is not possible.
Good to know
- Guests give only a name of their choice. Their votes are deleted automatically 30 days after the last suggested date, or immediately on request.
- Members see the names of those who voted; guests see only totals.
- Child accounts do not vote. Anyone who sees the date poll only as leadership (for example in the association) without being a member does not vote.
- A guest link is valid for 90 days by default (at most 365). Deleting the date poll removes all votes and guest links; an event that was already set stays in the calendar.
